Is dog fouling on private property Criminal damage?
Discussion
I’m having problem with dog walkers using a strip of land at the side of my garden as a dogs toilet. I own the land which is along side a road that feeds in to a cul de sac, I now have planning permission to move the fence up to the highway boundary which will stop this problem, however it will be a few months before I can afford to replace the fence. I live in a respectable area however the cul de sac has a cut through to some social housing about half a mile away, fortunately there is no reason for the residents of such an area to transverse our neighborhood unless of course to walk dogs. I've now found a one person who walks his two dogs both with out leads and lets them dump anywhere, including peoples front gardens! I've observed him from a distance and followed him back to this 'wrongons'estate. He looks the type who's only participation in society is to claim benefits, it also appears he lives on his on. The question is, would contaminating private property with feces by classed as criminal damage? As if it's not, I intend to Sh** in a bag for a week then resurface his front door step, I've also access to an old shaggerer of a car I can park in view of his house and a 12volt CCTV DVR I use for work to record the event when he discovers it. Yes I'm bored today, but that footage could be a You Tube hit your thoughts please
Thanks for some of the more constructive replies, though maybe part of my post could have been put better. It winds me up that others have no regard for things that don't belong to them, the land I own also has small children running over it from time to time who's brothers and sisters are on the way to school so I don't think it's fair on them when they tread in it, also I did not point out in my 1st post that 75 yards away is a dog mess bin so really it's not on. I can't see the council being able to do much but I be making a call about this person
Well today I got a gift, due to a hold up on the main route I diverted through 'my best friends' area to fine 5 cars on the road clamped for not having any tax including a car right outside his house, Moday has not felt so good for ages. I just hope if he can't use the car he won't go out with the dog more often...
